- The Daily Beast reported Wednesday that Trump plans a "revenge" attack on the media during his speech, targeting publications he accuses of writing negatively about his administration and his war with Iran.

- The White House Correspondents' Association claims Trump's attendance is a "profound contradiction of its purpose," arguing the dinner should symbolize the free press's vital role in America.
